FORD TRANSIT CUSTOM2018 · 2.0L DIESEL

This 2018 Ford Transit Custom presents an exceptionally clean MOT history. With five consecutive passes and zero recorded defects or advisories since 2021, the vehicle appears to have been maintained to a high standard. The mechanical trend is stable and reflects a well-cared-for van that has consistently met safety requirements without recurring failures. The recorded mileage of 85,551 over eight years averages out to approximately 10,700 miles per annum. This is a typical usage pattern for a commercial vehicle of this age, suggesting it has been in regular, consistent service rather than sitting idle for long periods or being subjected to extreme high-mileage delivery cycles. This balance is generally positive, as it keeps the engine and drivetrain components active without the excessive wear often associated with high-intensity fleet use. Because the MOT history is entirely clear, the primary risk is not a pattern of neglect, but rather the nature of the Transit Custom as a working vehicle. Even with a clean MOT record, components that are not tested during the annual inspection may be nearing the end of their service life. When inspecting the vehicle in person, you should prioritise checking the condition of the clutch and dual-mass flywheel, as these are common wear items in manual Transits that do not show up on MOT reports. Inspect the bodywork and chassis for signs of heavy loading or past accident repairs, and ensure all electrical features, including the air conditioning and infotainment system, are fully operational.
